Australian Estuary

The dietary compositions of fish species over saltmarsh in a large south-eastern Australian estuary (Brisbane Water) were explored to ascertain the importance of this habitat type to the fish community of that estuary. Following tidal inundation, 12 fish species (<120 mm total length) were obtained using fyke nets, with Ambassis jacksoniensis being particularly abundant. The stomachs of all fish contained undigested prey, implying that they fed while on the saltmarsh. Three species (A. jacksoniensis, Atherinosoma microstoma and Redigobius macrostoma) fed nearly exclusively on the crab zoeae that were released in high numbers by saltmarsh crabs. The diets of these three species significantly differed from those of the other species, which comprised mainly foraminiferans, copepods, crabs, polychaetes, terrestrial insects and/or detritus. Substantial partitioning of food resources also occurred between the other nine species. With increasing body size, A. jacksoniensis fed more on benthic prey (polychaetes and copepods) and less on crab zoeae. This study highlights the importance of saltmarsh as providing both protection and food resources for fish species during even short periods of tidal inundation by its provision of a superabundant food source (crab zoeae) and other prey, and underscores the need for recognition of saltmarsh in management plans for fish.

Abstract In the current global context of growing urbanization, urban nature reserves play a crucial role as habitats that serve educational, recreational and conservation purposes. Biodiversity conservation within urban reserves is a challenging task, particularly since connectivity between a reserve and its surrounding artificial green spaces (e.g. gardens and parks) may affect the ecological processes within the reserve in complex ways. In this context, we studied the feeding interactions between plants and birds to provide evidence that an urban nature reserve is connected to its surrounding artificial habitats by mobile organisms. We focused on fleshy-fruited plants and frugivorous birds, and we used a network approach to describe the feeding interactions between these two guilds. The most important connecting bird was Turdus rufiventris, an abundant and obligate frugivore, whose abundance was positively linked to fruit availability in most of the study sites. The apparent increase in the abundance of T. rufiventris in one habitat when it decreases in the other suggests that the two habitats may be complementary for this species. The nature reserve, with many native plants, however, seems to be the preferred site when both habitats offer an abundant fruit supply. Our results suggest changes in either habitat can have consequences in the other one, which has broad implications for the design of management plans of urban nature reserves.

Este estudo trata da análise estratégica da produção madeireira sustentada na Amazônia brasileira com foco nos planos de manejo florestal da região. A metodologia empregada se baseou na utilização da análise SWOT para determinar os pontos fortes e fracos e as oportunidades e ameaças do manejo florestal na Amazônia. Para tanto, foram entrevistados 40 profissionais que trabalham com o manejo florestal na região. O principal ponto forte esteve relacionado ao manejo, servindo como forma de manutenção da cobertura florestal; o principal ponto fraco tem relação com a pouca fiscalização sobre a extração ilegal de madeira; a principal oportunidade refere-se à grande quantidade de áreas disponíveis para o manejo florestal; e a principal ameaça é a competição desleal com a madeira de origem legal.Palavras-chave: Economia florestal; SWOT; floresta tropical. AbstractStrategic analysis of forest management in the Brazilian Amazon. This research develops a strategic analysis of supported timber production in the Brazilian Amazonia, with focus in the sustainable forest management plans in the region. The methodology is based on the use of SWOT Analysis to determine the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats of forest in the Amazon. Therefore, we interviewed 40 professionals who work with forest management. As result, we identified as the main positive point the management as way of maintenance of the forest covering. On the other hand, the main weake point is the lack of control of illegal wooden extraction. The main opportunity is the great amount of available areas for the forest management. Finally, the main threat is the unfair competition with the illegal wood.Keywords: Forest Economy; SWOT; rainforest.

Engineering or product development is one of the most important parts of the automotive industry because the development phase could be adjusted a lot of technical and economic parameters. Most of the engineering companies want to achieve better profit and sales, but in our globalized and digitalized world is this goal the more and more difficult to achieve. With the development of computers, on the one hand, the processes associated with project evaluation and the ability to manage them effectively have been simplified, but on the other hand, the Internet network creates a virtual space where activities with long-distance can be carried out quickly and efficiently. This pressure on engineering companies and their competitiveness are greatly jeopardized. For this reason, it is important to focus on the characteristics of project management plans and the possibilities of eliminating risk factors.

Juvenile Males

In coastal waters of several locations globally, whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) form seasonal aggregations, most of which largely comprise juvenile males of 4–8 m length. Evaluation of the period that individuals stay within these size- and age-specific groupings will clarify our understanding of the transition between life-stages in this species and how this might affect their long-term conservation. Long-term photo-identification studies in Seychelles and Djibouti provided data to evaluate this. The Seychelles aggregation had 443 individuals averaging 5.8 m identified between 2001 and 2009; however, the Djibouti aggregation comprised smaller individuals of 3.7 m mean length with 297 individuals identified between 2003 and 2010. In Seychelles, 27% of individuals identified in 2001 were seen again in 2009, while in Djibouti none of the whale sharks identified in 2003 were seen in 2010, although 13% from 2004 were. This suggests that membership periods in the Djibouti aggregation are shorter than in the other juvenile aggregations, such as in Seychelles. Continued photo-identification monitoring of other Indian Ocean aggregations might in time show the next location of these young sharks’ life-cycle and thereby allow development of informed national and regional management plans.

Numerical definition of species caught together by the groundfish trawl fishery operating off the Oregon and Washington coasts during 1985–87 indicated six major assemblages of species. Observers on commercial vessels recorded data allowing estimation of the weights of commercially important species caught in each tow. Assemblages were selected based on consistencies in three types of analysis of the species weights: detrended correspondence ordination, two-way indicator species clustering, and Bray–Curtis group average clustering. Two of the assemblages were dominated by a single species, one consisting largely of smooth pink shrimp (Pandalus jordani) and the other primarily of widow rockfish (Sebastes entomelas). The other assemblages identified were a deepwater rockfish assemblage, a deepwater Dover sole assemblage, a nearshore mixed-species assemblage, and a bottom rockfish assemblage. These assemblages of commercially cooccurring species may be treated as units in developing mixed-species management plans. The deepwater rockfish assemblage we identify has not been previously described.

Oligohydramnios Sequence

AbstractTwin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS), which was first described in 2007, is an atypical chronic form of twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). It presents as a large intertwin hemoglobin difference, with one twin developing anemia and the other polycythemia, without the traditional “polyhydramnios-oligohydramnios sequence” that is usually seen in TTTS. So far, ideal management of TAPS is not clear. We report here the case of a monochorionic biamniotic gestation, complicated by TAPS, detected at 30 weeks’ gestation that led to an emergent cesarean section. The recipient twin had an uneventful evolution. The donor twin was severely anemic, with a hemoglobin level of 2.5 g/dL that required immediate blood transfusion and intensive care management measures. Clinical evolution was favorable with good outcome in both twins. This case report intends to emphasize the association between hydrops fetalis and severe anemia, as well as the relevance of antenatal Doppler ultrasound investigations and the importance of an accurate management decision.
